The front nine was constructed in
the 1940's; the back nine more recently, resulting in a course
that plays very distinctly between the front and the back.
Water comes into play on nine holes, and narrower fairways carved
through mature trees result in a very technical, challenging - but
fun - game for golfers. After your round, there are a host
of other amenities at the course, including a pro-shop with the
latest in popular golf accessories, a fully-licensed dining room
and patio, and pool |

yards, but with well manicured grounds, rolling fairways and
challenging greens it plays significantly longer thanks to the
design by Stanley Thompson. A testament to challenge of the

the end of the day. It's traditional course styling, well

The front nine is more mature and
tighter than the back nine. Toughest hole on the course may be the
600 yard, par 5, 6th hole. The numerous sand traps can make you
play a few more strokes than usual. The 2nd hole, with its
spectacular setting has cost many a golfer more than their fair
